Mining FIFO flying.

Hey all
I have been thinking the FIFO jobs might be a bit of fun, but cannot find anything on it.

hoping people more in the know might be able to answer a few questions.
Is the flying usually done by the company or contracted to a charter outfit?
Anyone have a point of contact (even just a website) for me to check out and get some more info?
what are the conditions generally like? i have heard the horror stories of being pressured to fly unsafe hours and aircraft.

Thanks.
